A distant galaxy has been terrorised by pirates known as The Blight – and the time has come for their secret to be revealed! Journey across the stars in search of a mysterious treasure in this brand new narrative-driven expedition .
Exclusive rewards for this expedition include the battle-worn Outlaw Cape , a friendly wayward cube for your base, a generous assortment of flags and outlaw-themed posters , a unique starship trail , and more!
For any just starting the exp, the first system contains a base that has plants you can harvest repeatedly. It is magical. One turn around the base to harvest, sell it all at the covienently placed trade terminal, and !pop!, the plants are ready to harvest again. I did this on my steam deck save until I had 5 mil. Very handy.
When we get ships through these Twitch Drop events, cant they be unlocked during the expedition? I‘m aware that the Anomaly is not in the menu until after the freighter acquisition battle because you need to buy recipes there, so you can’t get to the redeeming station there right away.
And later I did not see any ships available in the Twitch reward category, is that on purpose? I’ll have another look today in case it just hadn’t registered yet.
But there is one better A class ship in another menu that I could switch to early on…
Summary
the horizon omega / alpha vector that you redeem through the game menu has a LOT of extra tech and cargo capacity …
The only unlockable ship is the Golden Vector. I have not managed to catch a Twitch stream. So if you are getting a ship, I imagine it is just a good ship as a reward for watching a stream. So far, the new ships I have encountered in the game, are mostly c-class.
I completed all the sections up to rendezvous 5. Then I thought I would take life easy for a while - build a base, make some money, build up my weapons and armour, and generally make my passage a little easier. And only then did I discover that I don’t have the plans for a base computer, and I can’t buy them.
I can’t build a base. 99% of the game’s functionality is locked out. What’s that about?
I haven’t finished them all yet. I’ve completed all the objectives up to rendezvous 5, but I still have the final few to complete (including the encrypted ones).
In all honesty, though, if one of the encrypted rewards is a base computer - well, what’s the point? By that stage, the expedition is over. If I was going to build a base, establish some storage, do some mineral extraction and processing, make some money, and build up my character, I needed to do it long before that.
Hmmm…so first, last. The frequency of attack is a bug they are working out. I found the pirates only slightly more difficult but I am using a controller and holding down LB now locks me onto the target which can make it easier or more difficult…I ended up blasting a freighter once due to target lock locking onto a pirate on the other side of the Freighter…
You can grab a freighter which serves as a base, in fact, I kept getting the base icon on my Freighter which I do not recall ever seeing before. I assume they did not want us to build a base until after the end, however, there are some bases throughout the route. People must have save edited themselves a BC.
As for the rest of it, it is being discussed here Datamining (Maximum Spoilers) with the last dozen or so posts being relevant, I think everyone is still working it out…
JSFiddle
I don’t want to give anything away for those who have not finished. Just hoping this is headed where I think it is headed…
